127. I need to stereotype republicans to survive.
These people have elected a man who ran a campaign largely based on the hatred of gays and lesbians. Anyone who voted for Bush during this campaign is my political enemy. They desire to destroy my freedom, interfere in my relationship, and-- in some cases-- threaten my life.

I don't care how nice all the Republican grandmothers in Kansas are. I'm sure that there are some nice people in the Klan, too. Or should I also be careful to waste my time drawing a fair and non-judgemental portrait of your average Klansman? What about Nazis who were just "swept away" by Hitler's charisma.

The truth is, your enemy will sometimes wear a smile and collect your newspapers while you're on vacation. It doesn't mean they won't call the Department of Homeland Security on you when their paranoia takes hold.
